The 1893 Chicago World’s Columbian Fair and The City Beautiful Movement This week we will consider the ways in which Grand Manner planning gained momentum in the later part of the nineteenth century and early part of the twentieth. In particular, we will look at City Beautiful plans of cities such as Washington D.C., Chicago, San Francisco and Los Angeles. Before we look at these plans, however, we’ll start with an exploration of an event in the U.S. that not only provided the momentum for the U.S. plans we’ll discuss, but also embodied much of the cultural ideology behind them. This event was the 1893 Columbian World’s Fair, hosted in Chicago. World’s fairs – or world’s expositions – originated in the nineteenth century as popular venues for celebrating recent accomplishments in technology, industry, agriculture and culture. As Julie K. Rose puts it, “They were arenas where manufacturers sought to promote products, where states and provinces competed for new residents and new investments, where urban spaces were organized into shimmering utopian cities, and where people from all social classes went to be alternately amused, instructed, and diverted from more pressing concerns. Memorialized in songs, books, buildings, public statuary, city parks, urban designs, and photographs, fairs were intended to frame the world view not only of the hundreds of millions who attended these spectacles, but also the countless millions who encountered the fairs secondhand.” The first major nineteenth century fair took place in London in 1851. This fair took place in the impressive and modern cast-iron and plate glass Crystal Palace in Hyde Park, featuring displays of the latest developments in industrial technology. The “golden era” of these elaborate cultural exhibits followed this London exposition. Fifty-nine major fairs took place between 1851 and the 1915-16 fair in San Diego, California. Some of the most culturally significant of these expositions include the 1876 Centennial Exhibition in Philadelphia, the 1889 Exposition Universelle in Paris, and the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago. The Crystal Palace as it was rebuilt and enlarged at Sydenham Hill, in a suburb south of London (1854) The 1889 ExposiFon Universelle in Paris highlighted the city’s new image under Haussmann, accentuated by the newly constructed Eiffel Tower. More than showcases of achievement and progress, world’s fairs were also artifacts of their times. Looking back on the wealth of material culture, imagery and literary influence that the fairs produced, we can consider these highly celebrated events as a way of understanding the social, cultural and political milieu from which they emerged. As a result, scholars have approached study of expositions from a variety of historic ...

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...

Levi Shapiro

Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg, The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation. This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability. Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots. The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee. • The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act. • The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X. • The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
